When you buy some Milk from us
Buttermilk or Cream
There are many you have helped
Although by you unseen.
Maybe a lonely farmer
Who owns a single cow,
Or.a dairyman who has a herd,
It matters not somehow.
BLUEVALE
You have helped them both along
Because their milk you buy
It in turn makes you strong,
For in milk strength does lie.
Then there are the men right here
In this plant of ours
Who clean and fill the bottles
clear
All through the working hours.
So you see that it helps
All along the road
People that you never see
To somewhat ease their load.
